  1. Thought this was more permanent than marker before I went back with a camera, disappointed

  2. Its by a hospital - so I guess nobody is a true vandal but more grade school here

  3. No dumb kid middle finger either, so don’t mspaint this with a penis or whatever is on your mind all the time.

  • could’ve been part of a last gasp of every mafia left is a type of penis, even female clitoris is some enlarged penis, something I don’t have the exact details on and would’ve needed help or more information to find out, of you tell me - directing it at one of the penis players of freaks ego mushymania.

Should we be looking at a

Code of conduct or am I just going to have to make a big stink every game until its not cute anymore,

it probably isn’t now.

Personal attacks aren’t cool. Not in the spirit of a forum game, at the minimum, you would think it wouldn’t happen in some for-fun arena like this. I know I didn’t feel cool making a bunch there. Kinda felt forced to when nobody wants to even talk to me within the context of the game. And here comes dumb fuck nobodies who don’t even play the game to bother me about shit that’s unfair since I can’t shit on things that would mean a lot to them when given an opportunity since I don’t go looking for those little cheap shots with people I never talk to. I don’t pass judgment on him and passive aggressively post it for him to see later, like why is he paying attention to me like that, but doesn’t see that leaderboard (justified, broken or not) for a quick look at who should be considered for some achievement he thought he was in the voting club for, instead actually being a pretend shareholder over there nobody has to listen to. Wrote that as a response, better I guess.

Something means a lot to me, according to him, and that’s funny, that I actually want to play this game. Then some dumb misunderstanding of how the games are even played plus a direct put down adjective. Further just pointing out and putting me in a position of thinking why am I going to play another game with some of you still around thinking that. Having that kind of fun at my expense with no recourse from me or anywhere to go with a response back that isn’t looking petty even if its the same thing you said. Because you think you’re better when you proved you are much less of a person with character.

And what’s the most I can say about pietastic? That I don’t know anything about him and just something stupid like made up that he’s here for god knows what, skullgirls cleavage and pantyshots, that won’t even be remotely true?

And I don’t want to nag and nag and be that guy, but I’m another guy - better than you since I’m the one being that other thing

the jesus cross nailed up and fucked with, stoned by fuck ups. “I’ve never been lynched as a civ!”

you’ve never been called a retard by half the game and told not to post at all by their dumb bullshit played off as ‘I was the bad guy so it was ok, nobody else read it except who I wanted to mess with and completely shit on so he has no credibility.’ Really? When you’re that ahead and guaranteed a win, you did that just to have fun, at someone else’s expense. Fuck that. You don’t hear about sore winners a lot and its probably not even the same defined words but it is a shit thing, “not a graceful winner” explains it better with the same amount of words as Sore loser/Sore Winner.

At least some people were trying to play the gawddam game.

So I don’t imagine anyone else would like or accept this treatment even if I’m a big man and can take it. The easy target, cuz ‘he posts too much lel.’ So that’s why its cool to fuck with me, and get those snide lols from the peanut gallery.

But you know as shit rolls downhill, it stinks the whole way. It will be everyone’s fault.

And I can’t even be added to balance discussion ever, this exclusive club out there when these games have had crap balance, a lot of times on purpose and we had no say in the matter being /your pawns/ in /your games/, so I’m all assed out and being the ass butt of someone else’s joke a million years ago because a lot of you guys can’t make your own because I’ll poop on ya.

283

Those are all good points WAH. We need a CoC, or “General Game Rules”, or something of that nature. It’s one thing to purposely antagonize someone in the game as a tactic, but personal attacks are out of line. The difficult part will be getting everyone to agree on what defines “personal attack” but once we do that it’ll be easy to enforce.

284

I’m not getting disqualified from a Mafia game for hurting someone’s feelings. Man the fuck up, this is SRK.

285

You said eff a g so many times I thought you wuz like 12 yrs old. and this is the xboxs.

Came back here to say maybe that jesus claim was some pure heathenism.

286

@RadicalFuzz‌

Keep the SFxT game up on the list, I’m going to get around to running it eventually, but WWE comes first.

287

Oh yeah, and I finally heard back from Azure about what happened in the middle of SRK Mafia XI.

He’s a gym head, loves working out. He wound up doing some kind of lift that caused him to pull something in his back, so bad that he couldn’t even get out of bed, and that it hurt to breathe.

His posting got completely peaced out by seering pain.

He drops on and off of SRK, so I wasn’t sure, but yeah, he was definitely out due to real life stuff.

288

I’m wondering if I should at the very least, then, reverse his DQ points. I feel kind of bad doing that to him if he was out with a legitimate reason such as that.

It’s your call PW, it was your game.

289

Oh, and does this CoC mean I actually have to call The…you know what…The Martian now?

290

I like having a CoC on the reals though.

I think most of what is said is in good fun, and hopefully in good taste. If people are going too far, and HAX says they’re going too far on him, they’re going too far. I’ve always viewed HAX as more thick-skinned than anyone here.

I’ve actually poked fun at OZ a lot, for instance. I’m not trying to be an asshole to him, I have no qualms with the guy, he seems pretty cool all-in-all, and if I could’ve, I would’ve stuck my neck out for him even in the South Park game for his edit.

But I think in his view, I crossed a line, as I remember reading something to that effect, I think in the sign-up thread for DBZ. It didn’t come off as a playful jab back and more like a cat who just got his tail stepped on.

I’ve backed off more on my jabs on OZ. I’m not that kind of guy, I’m not an asshole. And I don’t want to be characterized as that for just joking around, when they weren’t taken as jokes. We all have our thresholds and I think I crossed his, and that’s that.

That’s the problem though with the CoC, like Fuzz said, it’s hard to enforce. How do we enforce such a thing? I mean, it’s not just players, but it can be GMs too. How do we say when enough is enough, because enough is enough for different people. And what one could construe as a virulent attack on their personal character could look like just pressing for a mafia read to the rest of the thread. So even if someone cries foul, there may not be foulplay involved.

A lot of us don’t even have qualms with the homo-erotic write-ups Alpha makes, but some might. What if we had a gay player sign up, see an Alpha write-up, and cause a stink because Alpha hurt his feelings?

I would expect most people to take it as face value, with us just having fun, but eventually someone’s going to be too sensitive. So even if we base it off what someone’s threshold, there may end up being that one guy that comes in that’s just hypersensitive to everything, and takes everything as damaging to their personal character. Or some guy that just tries to act hypersensitive over something just because he didn’t personally like the person who said it and wanted to exact revenge.

These are all factors I see. I don’t want us to go into handholding mode where everything has to be G rated, or PG at most, because this is mafia. Mafia doesn’t play like that. Yes, people are going to get pressed and attacked. Yes, tempers may flare. That’s part of the game.

It’d take a lot of discretion, and even then it’s hard. Do we just leave it up to the players to report the offenses to the GM, and then the GM pass it on to the player responsible, and tell them to tone it down? How do we base it? Do we just look at whether they’re pressing, and whether they’re using real life issues to press that person the wrong way? Or do we just look at the feelings that are hurt and try to salve them?

This is mafia, we’ve always said we go at each others’ throats, and get insulted, then laugh about it in post-game. But if there are certain things being said and done that discourage people to play or interact with people from the game outside of it, then we need something in place.

HAX: If you know anything about wrestling, please PM me, I would like some help with the WWE game.

291

I did something like that once. I lifted so hard that I hurt the bench press. It couldn’t be used for over a month.

I bet you do. :coffee:

292

Any ban he had has already probably expired, right?

Retroactively giving points back… eeh, I don’t think so, problem is we have a pretty clear cut rules system in place, I’d rather not blur the lines. With cell phones/laptops/computers/etc, had he notified somebody what was going on we would have had no problem. The fact you had to go out of your way to ask him what happened, means 2 things

  1. He didn’t really care enough about the game to let us know, which is perfectly fine when you have more important real life shit to deal with, but since he never came back to explain himself he shouldn’t have the points re-added

and

  1. Obviously if he didn’t come back at all, the points must not mean much to him, so why open the door for future people to try and argue their way out of dq points? It just doesn’t seem worth it to me
293

I can understand that. Ideally I want a clause/rule that prevents any pointless, beyond reasonable personal attacks, but that’s not realistic. As MP also pointed out, the problem lies in personal interpretation. Alpha constantly harasses me but I know it’s in good fun just how Alpha operates so I’m fine with it. If some new player just popped in one day and did what Alpha does we’d have a problem.

We can’t make a rule based on subjective measures. Rules have to based on objective facts. So while a rule like “no posting unless you’re a player who is currently alive in the game” would be easy to see and easy to enforce, a rule like “no personal attacks” wouldn’t be possible. The issue of whether we should have a rule like that in the first place is moot if we can’t reliably measure and enforce it.

294

Sorry, but I know Hax is not trying to bring up a code of conduct after that fucking DBZ game. He is the last person to talk about that.

295
  • Throwing my 2 cents in this:

If anyone feels hurt/threatened/uncomfortable by words exchanged during the game, speak up about it post game. I think we’re all adults here, we should know how to handle each other and treat each other with respect. If you had interactions that felt uncomfortable, pm that person post game and sort it out between each other. Some people have thicker skin than others, some people have thinner skins, and sometimes it’s just plain ole miscommunication between the two parties involved. Talk to the person post game and sort it out if you think it’s a problem.

For example @ForgeDigger‌ thought I was picking on her when I referred to her as “bambina” in the Pirates arena game, she spoke up about it post game in pm’s and we sorted it out. It was a case of miscommunication on my behalf, I apologized and now we’re on pretty good terms now… Forge and I trying to eliminate each other during mafia/arena notwithstanding.

So yeah, be adults. Speak up. Sort it out and move on. *

296

You didn’t respond on making amends, agree to disagree, I put my hand out there for a handshake as was left hanging.

So another guy used it as “gameplay.” By being so far ahead in the game, it was just a fucked up move on his part. Yeah thanks for the 1 bitch point being alive at the end of the game, all I thought I was going to get being used like this, no vote points) but 0 props for a good clean game.

Precedent in giving shit to a GM, same player here. Everyone should’ve put a cap on this sooner.

297

as = and

was left hanging.

298

What the fuck have I missed?

299

Stop posting so much and read for yourself.

DBZ, the Eff You game.

Thanks for not reading again, and going to a shit joke. Instead of addressing it. It sounds like you agree.

I’m not going to be exempt from this, I did my part.

What else means should I have taken, and still get to play? Every other way, considering these options, all meant a DQ. Why would I want to play again?

Getting wordy, this was cleaner without adding so much. Why do I have to say everything. Talking to a wall. No give and take.

Spoiler

Screw you guys for giving me shit on the basis, ‘you might be mafia.’ That doesn’t justify it. Where’s the ‘sorry, but I thought you were mafia and was wrong, you were helping’ at the end? Even players as Mafia don’t get shit on for trying to play, but respect apparently. We were on the same team, you didn’t play well, why should I take crap from you. Are we supposed to be arguing about who’s the better player, at all?

But, when its not addressed at all in the post game stuff, there’s probably more talking about it/me in the loser lounge and maybe apologies in there, or just stupid stuff? Not in there to see, wasn’t added. Felt forgotten about when everyone wants to quickly move on, not even give respect to those who played it out. This could be another game nobody wants to talk about/“doesn’t count.”
